You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.âĤ

5th Wheel Gooseneck Adapters that Bolt Over King Pin
Set up is quickâthis style bolts over the king pin, installs on site with only a couple of wrenches, and delivers smooth towing with a gooseneck hitch. Choose cushioned options to help absorb shock, vibration, and bounce, with a 7-1/2" offset available for short bed trucks or straight versions for long beds. Not compatible with a cushioned pin box, and some setups may require a stronger mounting plate.
Compatibility varies. Some adapters are not compatible with cushioned pin boxes. If you have a cushioned pin box, check whether your adapter requires a stronger mounting plate to support it. If it isn't compatible, consider a gooseneck pin box that replaces the pin box, matched to your bolt pattern.
Yes, an offset can help increase maneuverability in a short bed. Choose an adapter that includes an offset to gain turning clearance. For a long bed, a standard non-offset design is typically fine. Verify your bed length and confirm the offset provides cab clearance at sharp angles.
Installation is straightforward with basic tools. Position it on the camper, snug the hardware with a couple of wrenches, and confirm the connection before towing. A short test run helps verify smooth, easy towing, even on rougher roads.
A bolts-over-king-pin adapter avoids bolt-pattern issues by clamping over the existing king pin. If you're set on a replacement gooseneck pin box, confirm your exact pin box number since these are not universal. To reduce chucking, look for cushioned designs and verify they fit your trailer's setup.
